Sign the Petition to

The Alabama State Legislature & Gov. Bentley

In this day and age I find it deplorable that the state of Alabama Hate Crime Statute doesn't cover violence against the Lesbian, Gay ,Bi-sexual & Transgender communities ..

It is time to amend this legislation to better reflect equal protection to all under the law. The very fact that Alabama doesn't include the LGBT Community in protection under the state law , The state of Alabama appears to be engaging in discrimination based on Sexual Orientation which itself is a violation of the Federal Hate Crime Law.

Time to move forward and out of the dark ages this state is so fond of living in !
